So I started getting driveline vibes a few weeks ago, suspected u-joint. Started getting ticking noises on deceleration on Saturday, shake the driveshaft and no play... thinking either carrier or u-joint still.

Make appt on monday.

Take truck in on Tuesday, she's squealin by then...

drop off at 11am. Verified noises and managed to pinpoint a bad u-joint by not being 'centered' on the caps.

Get call at 3PM saying they couldn't reproduce the problem anymore and basically I'm a liar kinda attitude. They requested '1 hr labor charge' since they wouldn't know if it would be warranty anymore.

Called back at 4:30, guess what it was... center U-joint! Idiots. Warrantied.

Drive home at 5PM, feeling driveline vibes at 60mph still. I get home and investigate only to find what I already knew. They installed the two driveshafts 180 out! All my zirc fittings were aligned previous, now I have one at every 90 deg going back. IDIOTS!!!!!

I really HATE to have to call them again to fix this, but its a nuisance light vibe at 60 and its obvious why it happened. WHY ARE PEOPLE SUCH IDIOTS?! I thought Toyota techs are supposed to be ASE? This is elementary mechanics here.

Call them and make sure you request shaft balance now... Also take pictures for reference, and call Toyota customer service if service gives you problems.
